but in al qaeda in islamic maghreb and this mujawa who purportedly is for west africa jihad in west africa but only affects algerians and went to the camps and kidnapped foreign workers. so the algerians are saying wait a second. they suspect ecowas has france behind it. precipitous intervention will not solve anything. don't forget algeria has a important tariq population as well. that is why they're against and initially i think algerians thought that the united states was on the same wave but, from "the washington post" this morning i have some doubt about that. >> thank you. jeff, you get the last minute, half minute. >> okay. i'll try to answer your question, just, simpler fashion. you know, i think it is important to remember that algeria has three hostages in northern mali. members of the diplomatic services corp. we've all seen the tremendous political consequences of putting your ambassadors putting your ambassadors in harm's way here in the u.s., right? i think algeria is extremely concerned about the fate of its diplomatic corps members in mali. algeria lost two members in iraq

al qaeda remains a strong force, however, in yemen and somalia, libya, other parts of north africa, iraq, and now in syria, and other extremists have been ground across the region. drones and modern instruments of war are important tools in our fight, but are no substitute for national security strategy for the middle east. the president is fond of saying that the tide of war is receding. i want to believe him as much as anyone se. but when we look at the middle east today, with iran closer than ever to nuclear weapons capability, with the conflict in syria threatening to destabilize the region, and with a violent extremists on the march, and with an american ambassador and three others dead, likely at the hands of al qaeda affiliates, it is clear that the risk of conflict in the region is higher now than when the president took office. i know the president hopes for a safer, freer, and more prosperous middle east allied with us. i shared this hope. but hope is not a strategy. we cannot support our friends and defeat our enemies in the middle east when our words are not backed up by deed

the same way we treated apartheid in south africa. a solution to this which stops this nuclear folly of theirs is unacceptable to america. the military action is the last resort. it is something i would only consider if all of the other avenues had been tried to their full extent. >> let me ask you, as you know, there are reports that iran and united states have agreed in principle to talk about iran's nuclear program. what if the deal -- what is the deal that you would accept, mr. president? >> those are reports in the newspaper. they are not true. our goal is to get iran to see that it is to give up its nuclear program and abide by the united nations sanctions put in place. -- u.n. resolutions that have been put in place. there are people in iran that have the same aspirations as all over the world. for a better life. we hope that their leadership makes the right decision. the deal we'll accept is they'll end their nuclear program. it is very straightforward. i am glad that governor romney agrees with the steps that we are taking. t
